A Bridge Too...Low?

This railroad trestle in Durham, N.C. warns motorists about the clearance (not quite 12 feet) but still tall vehicles try to pass under it--and with very regular top-shaved results.   This video from web-cams records the damage to 61 vehicles.  A cult has grown up around it with a site for constant monitoring! There's even a new one not in video, from March 5.

Hey Greg, that trestle is also near some great places to eat. Durham is not only a mecca for entertainment like this. They also host the American Dance Festival each summer, and much, much more. Best of all, they were recently named the South's Tastiest Town
